car keeps blowing fuses every 5 mintues or so the fuses that keep blowing are the fuse for the left back light and the lights on the dial clocks and the other fuse is for the lights on the dash and all the fuel guages and other things but when the fuses blow the window wipers go slow and the blowers are weak but when i rev the car the battery light comes on and then the window wipers and blowers go back to normal does enyone know what this could be as it is really doing my head in

get ya multimenter out and test the current draw on the fuse! sounds like somethings trying to work too hard and is drawing to much amps for the fuse to handel. i had this problem with a window motor, motor was fuked and reli slow and just kept popping fuses was alot of current draw so i replaced motor and was fine
